This Blackberry Peach Cobbler is the perfect dessert for showcasing the best of summer’s bounty. With juicy peaches and tart blackberries baked under a golden, buttery biscuit topping, this cobbler is both comforting and vibrant in flavor. The sweetness of the ripe peaches pairs beautifully with the slightly tangy blackberries, creating a delightful contrast. Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for a heavenly treat that’s perfect for gatherings, potlucks, or simply enjoying at home.
Ingredients:
- 4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
- 2 cups fresh blackberries
- 1 cup granulated sugar (divided)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, combine the peaches, blackberries, 1/2 cup of sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. If you prefer a thicker filling, you can add the optional tablespoon of cornstarch to the fruit mixture. Stir gently and set aside.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, remaining 1/2 cup of sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the melted butter and milk to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined to form a thick batter.
- Pour the fruit mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
- Drop spoonfuls of the batter over the fruit, leaving some gaps for the fruit to bubble through.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbly.
- Let the cobbler cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
